Found this on Facebook:

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today! If you purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG, you would have $33.00. If you purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers, you would have $0.00 today. But, if you purchased $1,000 worth of beer, drank all the beer, turned in the aluminum cans for recycling, you would have $214.00. Therefore the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg Plan.

    HAHAHA! I've heard of this before. It's pretty funny.

    You get $214.00 plus drunken value. Winner!

      Yes I have heard this about 10 years ago when there was the dot.com crash.

      Perhaps this time people will pay heed to the sterling advice given.

    Where can you get $214 for the aluminum cans from $1000 worth of beer?

    Well, whatever you can get for all of those cans, it still comes out better than what you'd get from the Lehman Brothers stock.

      But, if you bought $1,000 worth of shares of Wowjoint (BWOW) yesterday, you would have doubled your money and made over $1,000 today. Then you could buy and drink all that beer at once and have a quick cache of cans.
